Airborne derivation of microburst alerts from ground-based Terminal Doppler Weather Radar information: A flight evaluation [PDF]
An element of the NASA/FAA windshear program is the integration of ground-based microburst information on the flight deck, to support airborne windshear alerting and microburst avoidance.

Analysis of satellite data for sensor improvement (detection of severe storms from space) [PDF]
Stereo photography of clouds over southeast Asia was obtained using NOAA-7 and the Japanese GMS. Due to the breakdown of GMS2, GMS1, which had been retired, is being used as the replacement satellite.

A simple, analytical, axisymmetric microburst model for downdraft estimation [PDF]
A simple analytical microburst model was developed for use in estimating vertical winds from horizontal wind measurements. It is an axisymmetric, steady state model that uses shaping functions to satisfy the mass continuity equation and simulate boundary

Optimal recovery from microburst wind shear [PDF]
Severe low-altitude wind variability represents an infrequent but significant hazard to aircraft taking off or landing. During the period from 1964 to 1985, microburst wind shear was a contributing factor in at least 26 civil aviation accidents involving
